dc.descriptionThis dataset originates from the survey of women with children under 2 years, conducted as part of the baseline for the impact evaluation of the Alive & Thrive (A&T) project in Gujarat, India. The survey was designed to assess the effectiveness of systems-strengthening interventions and local governance engagement in improving the quality and co-coverage of health and nutrition services during the first 1,000 days of life. The baseline survey used a quasi-experimental design and was conducted in three districts, namely Bharuch, Surat, and Mahesana, covering 26 blocks. Thirteen blocks (4 from Bharuch, 4 from Surat, and 5 from Mahesana) were randomly assigned to the intervention and control groups, with an additional urban block from Surat included. Data collection took place between March and May 2022 and was led by the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) in collaboration with the survey firm Network for Engineering and Economics Research and Management (NEERMAN). The Women with Children Survey includes modules on: Administrative Details; Personal and Household Schedule; Household Assets and Dwelling Characteristics; Household-Level Social Protection; Exposure to Services During Pregnancy; Exposure to Services During Delivery and Early Childhood; Interaction with Frontline Workers (FLWs); Take-Home Rations (THR); Knowledge of Maternal Nutrition and Infant and Young Child Feeding (IYCF) Practices; Household Food Security; Women's Dietary Intake; Infant and Young Child Feeding Practices (for the youngest child aged 0–24 months). These data provide rich insights into maternal and child health behaviors, service access and quality, and the pathways through which systems-strengthening interventions may improve nutrition outcomes during the critical early years of life.
